    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    nope, going to stay at home and play dungeons and dragons with family and friends Enumclaw is a 5 hour drive each way. While I would like going to such an event, I ain't spending 10 hours in the car to do it.

    New Member looking for history on a family heirloom

    Best I can come up with is the maker was a late 1800's smith in Illinois. But that is obvious just from the rifle. That rifle needs some conservation and probably some restoration.

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    well I went looking for my TC Hunter bullets and wouldn't you know it...I put them in a super safe place I am never going to find them things, I got 2 in my possibles bag and 2 in my shooting box. Could have sworn they were in my shooting box. Great....no telling where I put them.

    Contaminated lead?

    Must have some tin or antimony in the pot. Even a small amount can make the lead noticeably harder.

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    I am withdrawing this for a couple of weeks. I have some extras on the way for it and once I have them, have fired this carbine and taken better pictures I will be relisting this again. I have brass, musket caps, a Maynard tool and an old school loader ordered for it. Will be of course...

    My blunderbuss options

    I can hit at 10-12 yards in the kill zone on turkey targets with my blunderbuss. Would work just fine as an up close and personal bird gun, just need to get over the lack of sights and shoot intuitively

    .36 Colt Navy that powerful??????

    It was a cap and ball revolver is all I know for sure. I suspect a .44 but the shooter owned .36's also. and it was murder 1 man thought another man did something that turns out didn't happen, he got high on meth or coke to screw up the courage then walked up and shot the man in misplaced...

    .36 Colt Navy that powerful??????

    I knew a man who took a roundball from a bp revolver to the sternum at about 10'. He didn't make it. Dr said if he had been shot in the ER with the best trauma team in the nation at the ready, they could not have saved him. Damn DA let the killer skate with manslaughter and a 10 year...

    .58 TC Hawken

    same, it is my go to gun when I want to take game deer, or turkey, it is just dandy

    4F in the 1863

    4f will work, you don't want to go over 10 makes for a hair more energy and a more satisfying *crack* when set off now the lawyer load in the book says 3f also if you have a brass frame, stick to the 3f

    .58 TC Hawken

    for that price you could get a much better rifle 2500$ for a TC rifle is way over priced

    Solved the percussion cap issue.

    that is the best looking homemade cap I have ever seen what gauge metal did you use, doesn't look like you used a soda pop can

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    all good, I understand And I already got the fire channel cleaned I used a sewing needle to get in there, then I popped a homemade musket cap, then I went at it with WD-40, the needle again, and blasts from a can of butane. Now it is clear and I am certain I could shoot it right now if I had a...

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    can I talk you out of some of that brass? and I am selling it for $1900 so certainly a price worth more than a nice diner! Selling it for my mother in law. If I had the money for it I would keep it. :)

    Spiffy! I have an Uberti reproduction. Fun little gun.

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    I don't mind at all. I know engagement on a post increases chances of sale. Also I don't agree with the curmudgeonly types that get upset over engagement. That Maynard you saw must have been a great piece to warrant such a big price tag. Were the spare barrels different calibers?

    WITHDRAWN Maynard Model 2

    Still up for your consideration a functional Maynard Model 2 serial # 8XXX, so it likely saw service locks up tight as a drum, and the lock and trigger is firm and tight honestly the condition of this 155+ year weapon is amazing
